下面参考附图和可选的实施例中,实施例对本申请作说明。The following describes the present application with reference to the drawings and optional embodiments.
如图1至图4所示,本申请实施例公布了一种显示面板100的驱动方法,包括:As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, an embodiment of the present application discloses a driving method of a display panel 100, including:
S10:根据与数据驱动芯片140的距离远近,预先将显示面板100划分为多个充电区域,给每个充电区域确定唯一的数字编码,并把充电区域和数字编码的对应信息预先存储到时序控制芯片110中;S10: According to the distance from the data driving chip 140, the display panel 100 is divided into a plurality of charging areas in advance, a unique digital code is determined for each charging area, and the corresponding information of the charging area and the digital code is stored in the timing control in advance Chip 110;
S11:检测待充电像素所在的充电区域,时序控制芯片110根据充电区域输出对应的数字编码;S11: Detect the charging area where the pixel to be charged is located, and the timing control chip 110 outputs the corresponding digital code according to the charging area;
S12:伽马芯片120接收数字编码,并根据输入的工作电压,产生对应数字编码的伽马电压,以驱动数字编码对应的充电区域的充电工作。S12: The gamma chip 120 receives the digital code and generates a gamma voltage corresponding to the digital code according to the input operating voltage to drive the charging work in the charging area corresponding to the digital code.
随着液晶电视尺寸越来越大,解析度越来越高,导致在数据线对面板进行充电的时候,数据线距离数据驱动芯片140的近端和远端的充电差异越来越明显,表现为远端充电效果差,亮度较低,近端的部分充电效果较好,亮度较高。本方案中,可以根据充电区域的充电差异,进行伽马电压调节,给偏暗的充电 区域以较标准伽马电压高的实际伽马电压,使得对应充电区域的亮度增强,减少甚至消除与其他区域的亮度差异。而且,本方案是通过给伽马电压产生电路122提供不同的基准电压来实现产生不同的伽马电压给不同的充电区域的;其中,基于不同的基准电压,该伽马电压产生电路122是通过同一个电路产生不同的伽马电压,避免改变伽马电压产生电路122的架构而带来的电路变化,以及电路变化带来的产线升级,从而避免了生成成本的增加。As the size of the LCD TV becomes larger and the resolution becomes higher and higher, the charging difference between the data line and the near end and the far end of the data driving chip 140 becomes more and more obvious when the data line charges the panel. The charging effect for the far end is poor, and the brightness is low. The charging effect at the near end is better and the brightness is higher. In this solution, the gamma voltage can be adjusted according to the charging difference in the charging area, and the darker charging area can be given a higher actual gamma voltage than the standard gamma voltage, so that the brightness of the corresponding charging area is enhanced, reducing or even eliminating the The brightness difference of the area. Moreover, this solution is to provide different reference voltages to the gamma voltage generating circuit 122 to generate different gamma voltages to different charging regions; wherein, based on different reference voltages, the gamma voltage generating circuit 122 is The same circuit generates different gamma voltages, avoiding circuit changes caused by changing the architecture of the gamma voltage generating circuit 122, and production line upgrades caused by circuit changes, thereby avoiding an increase in generation costs.
在一实施例中,,显示面板100还包括产生工作电压的工作电压电路130;伽马芯片120包括基准电压产生电路121和伽马电压产生电路122;基准电压产生电路121的输入端分别耦合于时序控制芯片110和工作电压电路130,伽马电压产生电路122的输入端耦合于基准电压产生电路121;In one embodiment, the display panel 100 further includes an operating voltage circuit 130 that generates an operating voltage; the gamma chip 120 includes a reference voltage generating circuit 121 and a gamma voltage generating circuit 122; the input terminals of the reference voltage generating circuit 121 are respectively coupled to The timing control chip 110 and the working voltage circuit 130, the input terminal of the gamma voltage generating circuit 122 is coupled to the reference voltage generating circuit 121;
伽马芯片120接收数字编码,并根据输入的工作电压,产生对应数字编码的伽马电压,以驱动数字编码对应的充电区域的充电工作的步骤包括:The gamma chip 120 receives the digital code and generates a gamma voltage corresponding to the digital code according to the input operating voltage to drive the charging operation of the charging area corresponding to the digital code. The steps include:
基准电压产生电路121接收数字编码,并根据输入的工作电压,产生对应数字编码的基准电压;The reference voltage generating circuit 121 receives the digital code and generates a reference voltage corresponding to the digital code according to the input operating voltage;
伽马电压产生电路122接收基准电压,产生对应数字编码的伽马电压以驱动数字编码对应的充电区域的充电工作。The gamma voltage generating circuit 122 receives the reference voltage and generates a gamma voltage corresponding to the digital code to drive the charging operation of the charging area corresponding to the digital code.
本方案中,基准电压产生电路121将输入的工作电压经转换为基准电压;所述伽马电压产生电路122根据基准电压输出伽马电压进行驱动,那么基准电压同时又作为伽马电压产生电路122的基准电压,所有伽马电压都是将基准电压进行分压得到的,那么等于改变了基准电压的大小,也就得到了不同大小的伽马电压,此方式简单易行,不改动或增加其他器件,减少了生产难度。In this solution, the reference voltage generating circuit 121 converts the input operating voltage into a reference voltage; the gamma voltage generating circuit 122 outputs the gamma voltage for driving according to the reference voltage, then the reference voltage also serves as the gamma voltage generating circuit 122 The reference voltage, all the gamma voltages are obtained by dividing the reference voltage, then it is equal to changing the size of the reference voltage, and the gamma voltages of different sizes are obtained. This method is simple and easy, without changing or adding other The device reduces the production difficulty.
在一实施例中,基准电压产生电路121接收数字编码,并将工作电压乘以数字编码得到基准电压;In an embodiment, the reference voltage generating circuit 121 receives the digital code, and multiplies the working voltage by the digital code to obtain the reference voltage;
伽马电压产生电路122接收基准电压,并根据基准电压产生对应数字编码的伽马电压。The gamma voltage generating circuit 122 receives the reference voltage and generates a gamma voltage corresponding to the digital code according to the reference voltage.
本方案中,伽马电压是通过将基准电压进行分压得到的,现在我们可以通过将产生基准电压的工作电压放大,那么将可以得到比原来大的基准电压,如此便可以得到一个比原来大的伽马电压对充电区域进行电压补偿,使的亮度较暗的充电区域亮度得到提升减少甚至消除数据线近端与远端的亮暗现象。In this scheme, the gamma voltage is obtained by dividing the reference voltage. Now we can amplify the working voltage that generates the reference voltage, then we will get a reference voltage that is larger than the original, so we can get a larger voltage than the original. Gamma voltage compensates for the charging area, so that the brightness of the darker charging area is improved to reduce or even eliminate the bright and dark phenomenon at the near and far ends of the data line.
其中,该数字编码可以根据实际需求以及显示面板的亮度差异情况来确定,例如,当该基准电压是通过分压得到是,可以使得数字编码小于等于0,不过距离数据驱动芯片越远的充电区域的伽马电压越大,对应的数字编码也越大。Among them, the digital code can be determined according to the actual demand and the brightness difference of the display panel, for example, when the reference voltage is obtained by dividing the voltage, the digital code can be made to be less than or equal to 0, but the farther the charging area is from the data driving chip The greater the gamma voltage, the greater the corresponding digital code.
在一实施例中,伽马芯片120还包括存储有伽马分压系数的伽马分压系数存储器123;In an embodiment, the gamma chip 120 further includes a gamma partial pressure coefficient memory 123 that stores gamma partial pressure coefficients;
伽马电压产生电路122接收基准电压,产生对应数字编码的伽马电压以驱动数字编码对应的充电区域的充电工作的步骤包括:The gamma voltage generating circuit 122 receives the reference voltage and generates a gamma voltage corresponding to the digital code to drive the charging operation of the charging area corresponding to the digital code. The steps include:
伽马电压产生电路122接收基准电压,根据对应的伽马分压系数,产生对应的伽马电压,以驱动数字编码对应的充电区域的充电工作。The gamma voltage generating circuit 122 receives the reference voltage and generates a corresponding gamma voltage according to the corresponding gamma voltage division coefficient to drive the charging operation of the charging area corresponding to the digital encoding.
本方案中,根据伽马分压系数不同,进行不同大小的分压得到对应数字编码,以及亮度需求下的伽马电压,其中,其他条件相同情况下,越远离数据驱动芯片的充电区域,对应的伽马电压越大。该伽马分压系数存储器123存储的伽马分压系数较多,将其设置在伽马芯片处,可以减少跨板数据传输的压力。In this solution, according to different gamma voltage division coefficients, different voltage divisions are performed to obtain corresponding digital codes and gamma voltages under brightness requirements. Among other things, under the same conditions, the farther away from the charging area of the data driver chip, the corresponding The greater the gamma voltage. The gamma partial pressure coefficient memory 123 stores many gamma partial pressure coefficients, and setting it at the gamma chip can reduce the pressure of data transmission across the board.
在一实施例中,显示面板100的第一侧部和第二侧部均设置有数据驱动芯片140采用数据线双边驱动方式;In an embodiment, both the first side and the second side of the display panel 100 are provided with a data driving chip 140 using a bilateral driving method of the data line;
或者显示面板100仅第一侧部或者第二侧部设置有数据驱动芯片140,采用数据线单边驱动方式。Or the display panel 100 is provided with a data driving chip 140 only on the first side or the second side, and adopts a data line unilateral driving method.
本方案中可以应用于数据线单边驱动架构,如此,便可以避免数据线双边驱动方式带来的技术难度的提升以及对产生生产带来的难度,并避免带来了制造成本的提升,以及空间占用的增加;而采用该数据线双边你驱动的架构也是可以的,双边驱动的架构中,像素位于两侧数据驱动芯片140最远的地方,仍然存在亮度偏暗的现象,使用本申请的方法,可以避免该现象的发生,且采用数据线双边驱动的架构,可以减少充电区域划分的数量和难度等,减少对计算难度以及伽马电路的需求;单侧设置数据驱动芯片时,数据线的远端伽马电压最大;双侧设置时,数据线的中部对应的充电区域的伽马电压最大。This solution can be applied to the data line unilateral drive architecture. In this way, the technical difficulty caused by the data line bilateral drive mode and the difficulty in producing production can be avoided, and the increase in manufacturing costs can be avoided, and Increased space occupation; it is also possible to use this data line bilaterally driven architecture. In the bilaterally driven architecture, the pixels are located at the farthest place on both sides of the data driving chip 140, and there is still a phenomenon of dimmed brightness. This method can avoid the occurrence of this phenomenon, and the architecture of bilateral drive of the data line can reduce the number and difficulty of the charging area division, etc., reducing the calculation difficulty and the need for the gamma circuit; when the data drive chip is set on one side, the data line The far-end gamma voltage is the largest; when set on both sides, the gamma voltage in the charging area corresponding to the middle of the data line is the largest.
当然,如显示面板为例,以观看者为中心,第一侧部是显示面板的上侧部,第二侧部是显示面板的下侧部;另外,本领域技术人员可以根据自身需求设置,第一侧部可以为显示面板的下侧部,第二侧部可以为显示面板的上侧部。Of course, taking the display panel as an example, with the viewer as the center, the first side is the upper side of the display panel, and the second side is the lower side of the display panel; in addition, those skilled in the art can set according to their own needs, The first side portion may be the lower side portion of the display panel, and the second side portion may be the upper side portion of the display panel.
在一实施例中,距离数据驱动芯片140越远的充电区域,对应的伽马电压越大。In an embodiment, the farther the charging region is from the data driving chip 140, the greater the corresponding gamma voltage.
本方案中,充电区域距数据驱动芯片140距离越远,由于充电区域的电阻所述距离的增大而增大,数据驱动芯片140所产生的标准伽马电压损耗越大,进而导致充电区域随着距离数据驱动芯片140的越远亮度越暗;施加一个比标准伽马低电压更大差值的实际伽马电压,如此,距离数据驱动芯片140远的充电区域远且损耗大的可以得到多一些的电压补偿,距离数据驱动芯片140远的充电区域近且损耗小的则少一些电压补偿,在这其中,便可以较好的减少各个充电区域之间的亮度差异,甚至消除各个充电区域之间的亮度差异。或者说与标准伽马电压的差值越大,即最靠近数据驱动芯片140的充电区域的伽马电压跟标准的伽马电压相当,而为了抵消伽马电压的损耗,距离越远的充电区域对应的伽马电压越大,增大的幅度与损耗的程度相当。In this solution, the farther the charging area is away from the data driving chip 140, the larger the distance due to the increase in the resistance of the charging area, the greater the standard gamma voltage loss generated by the data driving chip 140, which in turn causes the charging area to The farther away from the data drive chip 140, the darker the brightness; the actual gamma voltage with a greater difference than the standard gamma low voltage is applied. In this way, the charging area far from the data drive chip 140 is far away and the loss is large. For some voltage compensation, the charging area far from the data driving chip 140 is near and the loss is small, so there is less voltage compensation. Among them, the brightness difference between each charging area can be better reduced, and even the charging area can be eliminated. Difference in brightness. Or the greater the difference from the standard gamma voltage, that is, the gamma voltage closest to the charging area of the data driving chip 140 is equivalent to the standard gamma voltage, and in order to offset the loss of the gamma voltage, the farther the charging area The greater the corresponding gamma voltage, the greater the magnitude of the loss is.
在一实施例中,显示面板100的显示区域根据数据线的行数依次划分为多个充电区域,每个充电区域具有一个唯一的数字编码。In an embodiment, the display area of the display panel 100 is divided into a plurality of charging areas in sequence according to the number of data lines, and each charging area has a unique digital code.

When the gamma voltage generating circuit 122 outputs the gamma voltage for driving, one charging area corresponds to only one gamma voltage, which can ensure that the gamma voltage generating circuit generates gamma The horse voltage performs accurate voltage compensation for each charging area, so that the brightness difference between the charging areas of the display panel 100 or the brightness difference between the charging areas.
在一实施例中,检测待充电像素所在的充电区域,时序控制芯片110根据充电区域输出对应的数字编码的步骤包括:In an embodiment, the charging area where the pixel to be charged is located is detected, and the step of the timing control chip 110 outputting the corresponding digital code according to the charging area includes:
时序控制芯片110的计数器111计数数据线的行数;The counter 111 of the timing control chip 110 counts the number of rows of the data line;

本方案中,时序控制芯片110包括行计数器111,由于行计数器111的原理是每完成充电一行计数X加1,而且,扫描线的行数不同,对应的像素距离数据驱动芯片140的距离也不同,这样就可以通过该行数来表示像素远离数据驱动芯片140的距离;如此,我们就可以根据需求设计计数X为不同值时的控制方式,具体的,比如,可以将计数X分为四阶,即100、200、300、400;若行数值X小于或等于100时,相对应得数字编码1(1.1倍标准伽马电压);若行数值X大于或等于100且小于或等于200时,则相对应得到数字编码2(1.2倍标准伽马电压);若行数值X大于或等于200且小于或等于300时,则相对应得到数值编码3(1.3倍标准伽马电压);若行数值X大于或等于300且小于或等于400时,则相对应得到数值编码4(1.4倍标准伽马电压),如此类推,相对应得也有不同大小的4组数字编码,每组数字编码对应伽马电压也是依次 增大的;当然,例如当基准电压等于工作电压乘以数字编码时,该数字编码也可以分别选择0.5、0.55、0.6之类的比例系数值。In this solution, the timing control chip 110 includes a line counter 111. Since the principle of the line counter 111 is that the count X increases by 1 for each line of charging completed, and the number of lines of the scanning line is different, the distance between the corresponding pixel and the data driving chip 140 is also different. , So that the number of rows can be used to indicate the distance of pixels away from the data driving chip 140; in this way, we can design the control method when the count X is a different value according to requirements, for example, the count X can be divided into four levels , That is, 100, 200, 300, 400; if the line value X is less than or equal to 100, the corresponding digital code 1 (1.1 times the standard gamma voltage); if the line value X is greater than or equal to 100 and less than or equal to 200, Then corresponding to the digital code 2 (1.2 times the standard gamma voltage); if the line value X is greater than or equal to 200 and less than or equal to 300, then the corresponding value code 3 (1.3 times the standard gamma voltage); if the line value When X is greater than or equal to 300 and less than or equal to 400, the corresponding numerical code 4 (1.4 times the standard gamma voltage) is obtained, and so on. Correspondingly, there are also four sets of digital codes of different sizes, each of which corresponds to the gamma The voltage also increases in sequence; of course, for example, when the reference voltage is equal to the working voltage multiplied by the digital code, the digital code can also select proportional coefficient values such as 0.5, 0.55, and 0.6, respectively.
该时序控制芯片110的侦测和控制电路识行计数器111的计数值,并根据计数值传送对应的数字编码给伽马芯片120,伽马芯片120根根据数字编码产生伽马电压对于数字编码所述对应的充电区域进行充电,改善不同的充电区域亮度差异;另外,每一组数字编码里可包括且对应多个伽马电压,可以对远近不同的充电区域精准的伽马电压调整。The detection and control circuit of the timing control chip 110 recognizes the count value of the counter 111, and transmits the corresponding digital code to the gamma chip 120 according to the count value. The gamma chip 120 generates a gamma voltage according to the digital code. The corresponding charging area is charged to improve the difference in brightness between different charging areas; in addition, each set of digital codes may include and correspond to multiple gamma voltages, which can accurately adjust the gamma voltage of different charging areas.
另外,在时序控制芯片110内部增加一个侦测和控制电路,能识别行计数器111的X的不同大小做相应的不同输出即可。In addition, a detection and control circuit is added inside the timing control chip 110, which can recognize different sizes of X of the line counter 111 and make corresponding different outputs.
